Petr Štetiar 22c4d0c311 malta: fix overlay support by updating to f2fs/ext4 based overlays Current snapshot images doesn't provide images with usable overlay filesystems: mount_root: no usable overlay filesystem found, using tmpfs overlay So this patch fixes this by updating support to current f2fs/ext4 based overlays and providing squashfs with proper rootfs TARGET_ROOTFS_PARTSIZE size. While at it, I've also added support for optional gzipping of the images, and renamed the output rootfs image filenames to match the more common naming pattern $(IMG_PREFIX)-rootfs-$(FS-TYPE).img.

This Malta target is intended to be used with the Qemu emulator. It can be used
to prototype an OpenWrt firmware for MIPS processors. One could also use it to
troubleshoot MIPS applications without access to real hardware.

To use the images built by OpenWrt with qemu, use the following commands:

For the 32 bit little-endian image:
qemu-system-mipsel -kernel bin/targets/malta/le/openwrt-malta-le-vmlinux-initramfs.elf -nographic -m 256

For the 32 bit big-endian image:
qemu-system-mips -kernel bin/targets/malta/be/openwrt-malta-be-vmlinux-initramfs.elf -nographic -m 256

For the 64 bit little-endian image:
qemu-system-mips64el -kernel bin/targets/malta/le64/openwrt-malta-le64-vmlinux-initramfs.elf -nographic -m 256

For the 64 bit big-endian image:
qemu-system-mips64 -kernel bin/targets/malta/be64/openwrt-malta-be64-vmlinux-initramfs.elf -nographic -m 256

and enjoy the system bootin.
